I haven't noticed poor wake times, but my laptop does kernel panic and reboot a fair amount. Maybe 4 times in the past week. My hunch is that it's Spotify's fault but I haven't dug into the logs.
- Reason077 6y agoI've had mine panic and reboot twice, both times happened shortly after disconnecting other Macs that were connected via a Thunderbolt cable (target disk mode).
- mhh__ 6y agoHow does spotify panic the kernel itself?
- SigmundA 6y agoA user-land program cannot be at fault for a kernel panic, that is the kernels fault, always.
- ridiculous_fish 6y agoxnu will panic if it doesn't receive periodic check-ins from userspace. For example if WindowServer hangs, then the kernel may deliberately panic so that the system reboots. See man watchdogd for (a tiny bit) more.
- saagarjha 6y agoTrue, but a third-party program shouldn’t really be able to do this, at least not easily.
- siquick 6y agoI have this problem but only if I've been plugged into a monitor, and then unplugged and gone onto battery. Rebooting after unplugging stops it but its annoying.
